My friend went to Chimney Rock to help with the ground effort recovery. He just sent me videos. The town is gone. And this is what it looks like across dozens of mountain communities.
Helene is officially the 2nd deadliest hurricane in the last 50 years.

Can you explain to me how a hurricane that made landfall 9 hours away caused this kind of damage? New Orleans is very close to the coast. This is not the same. 1+1 does not equal 2 here.

The terrifying part now is that it's the 2nd deadliest and we are nowhere NEAR having a complete count of the deaths.

Don't worry. Kamala will take care of it. She's sending $750 after people apply online.
.. if only they had internet.

I think NC needs to contact OK about how to do flood detention ponds to stop flash floods. I’ve lived this, it will happen again unless you deal with it and the first thing, do not build back on mountain streams.

Fortunately, I can see those structures still standing, its a silver lining that it was not completely washed away.

This is way more than a hurricane. Devastating. I pray for these people.

I'll never understand why so few heeded the warnings and failed to evacuate. People in Florida evacuate by the 10s of thousands, regularly. But then they have seen destruction like this before and understand the danger.
It's really sad.
